One of the most prominent and prolific designers and architects of the late twentieth century, Michael Graves is best known for his popular product designs, including the world-famous Alessi whistling-bird teakettle, and controversial buildings, such as the Portland Building in Oregon, Humana Building in Kentucky, and Dolphin and Swan Hotels at Walt Disney World, Florida. Graves was widely seen as the leading voice of postmodernist architecture, which reintroduced human scale, color, and, sometimes, playful forms into the stark white vocabulary of modernism. Following a devastating illness that paralyzed him from the chest down, Graves became a tireless designer and advocate of improved health-care products and facilities before his sudden death in 2015. Shortly before this, he began a series of interviews with journalist Ian Volner, which form the basis of this biography of a remarkable designer. Volner also conducted numerous interviews with Graves's family, patrons, colleagues, and friends. What emerges is a meticulously researched, anecdote-rich human story, as well as a primer on the American architecture scene of the past sixty years and a portrait of a man whose deep passion for his art brought pleasure to millions.

For nearly forty years, Michael Graves has produced architecture with a blend of classical rigor and abstract whimsy that has consistently garnered international recognition. This, the fourth chronological volume of Michael Graves' buildings and projects documents the latest period in a career of award-winning design. With more than 100 projects illustrated by over 300 color photographs and architectural drawings by Michael Graves & Associates, this volume demonstrates Graves' enduring status as a leading American architect. Michael Graves recombines traditional architectural elements to expand and transform the language of architecture. Valuing character over style, Graves' designs maintain a sense of experimentation while respecting scale, culture and history. Michael Graves considers himself a "general practitioner" rather than a specialist in any one building type or discipline. He has widely influenced architecture, interior design and industrial design, as well as the classroom through his nearly 40-year career at Princeton University. He and his associates design not only the architecture but also the interiors and furnishings of their projects. Graves' extensive line of products for Target has made highquality design both affordable and readily available. The contemporary, contextual designs of Michael Graves can be found worldwide, from multi-use urban developments, corporate headquarters and hotels to libraries, museums, academic buildings and private residences. Projects in this volume range from the Washington Monument Restoration, which transformed the restoration project into public art, to the United States Embassy Compound in Seoul, Korea; and from the LIFE Magazine Dream House, which provided a well designed and flexible prototype for the average house, to the Miramar Resort Hotel and El Gouna Golf Hotel and Club in El Gouna, Egypt.

In 1960, before his skyscrapers and teapots made him a household name, Michael Graves set out on a journey once considered obligatory for a young architect: a grand tour of the great monuments of Europe. As a recipient of the prestigious Prix de Rome, Graves traveled through Italy, Greece, Turkey, Spain, England, Germany, and France, studying and recording the masterworks of both ancient and modern architecture. Michael Graves: Images of A Grand Tour collects for the first time the stunning artwork produced during this trip. Delicate pencil sketches, striking ink washes, and colorful photographs show the deep connection Graves had to the places he visited, from the Roman Forum to the Grecian Acropolis to Wiltshires Stonehenge. They also tell something of the education of an architect, bringing to light the classical buildings that caused Graves to reexamine his early devotion to modernism. A foreword by Graves reflects on these travels from the distance of forty years, while author Brian Ambroziak puts the tour into the context of Graves's life and work.

Michael Graves is one of the best-known contemporary architects the world over. His buildings have already become part of architectural history and frequently his work and the word Post-Modernism are mentioned in one and the same breath. Michael Graves is not just an architect, but also a designer. Indeed, many people are simply not aware of the vast scale of his work as a designer ' although his designs grace almost all households today. For example, not only has he designed a whole series of table-top objects for Alessi, starting with the meanwhile famous kettle, and ranging from butter trays to small milk jugs. But he has also created furniture, clocks, jewellery, lights, cases and much more.
